Sounds like you are hitting the problem described in the recently opened <https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=49261> I haven't found the time to fully look into this but think Ant should not overwrite read-only files by default - so this part would be a fix rather than a regression. It probably should do so if the overwrite attribute has been set to true, but the bug report says ant doesn't do so either.
